Does Anybody have any thoughts on the new Russian bomb?

Pretty cool if you ask me.

We need one of these!!!

I believe the MOAB is a kinetic explosive bomb rather than a fuel-air bomb.

I've long thought that fuel-air explosives could be a great non-nuclear response to an non-conventional (Read Nuke or Chemical) attack.

Those silly Chechnian's better look out if they decide to go nukier...
